Gej Reads Out Babangida's Coup Text by Nobody: 4:28pm On Jan 09, 2015
the otuoke man has finally gone drunk on live television by reading out babangida's 1983 coup speech to spite GMB.
just maybe his trip to minna to see ibb was to seek permission to use this material for his campaign lest he be accused of plagiarism.

the race for the number one office is really smoldering with the trend of character assassination we are witnessing tgis time around.

Below is the complete text of the General
Ibrahim Babangida Coup Speech on August
27, 1985


Fellow Nigerians, When in December 1983,
the former military leadership, headed by
Major-General Muhammadu Buhari,
assumed the reins of government, its
accession was heralded in the history of
this country. With the nation at the mercy
of political misdirection and on the brink of
economic collapse, a new sense of hope
was created in the minds of every Nigerian.
Since January 1984, however, we have
witnessed a systematic denigration of that
hope. It was stated then that
mismanagement of political leadership and
a general deterioration in the standard of
living, which had subjected the common
man to intolerable suffering, were the
reasons for the intervention.
Nigerians have since then been under a
regime that continued with those trends.
Events today indicate that most of the
reasons which justified the military
takeover of government from the civilians
still persist.
The initial objectives were betrayed and
fundamental changes do not appear on the
horizon. Because the present state of
uncertainty, suppression and stagnation
resulted from the perpetration of a small
group, the Nigerian Armed Forces could
not as a part of that government be
unfairly committed to take responsibility
for failure.
Our dedication to the cause of ensuring
that our nation remains a united entity
worthy of respect and capable of
functioning as a viable and credible part of
the international community dictated the
need to arrest the situation.
Let me at this point attempt to make you
understand the premise upon which it
became necessary to change the
leadership.
The principles of discussions, consultation
and co-operation which should have
guided decision-making process of the
Supreme Military Council and the Federal
Executive Council were disregarded soon
after the government settled down in 1984.
Where some of us thought it appropriate to
give a little more time, anticipating a
conducive atmosphere that would develop,
in which affairs of state could be attended
to with greater sense of responsibility, it
became increasingly clear that such
expectations could not be fulfilled.
Regrettably, it turned out that Major-
General Muhammadu Buhari was too rigid
and uncompromising in his attitudes to
issues of national significance. Efforts to
make him understand that a diverse polity
like Nigeria required recognition and
appreciation of differences in both cultural
and individual perceptions, only served to
aggravate these attitudes.
Major-General Tunde Idiagbon was
similarly inclined in that respect. As Chief
of Staff, Supreme Headquarters, he failed
to exhibit the appropriate disposition
demanded by his position. He arrogated to
himself absolute knowledge of problems
and solutions, and acted in accordance
with what was convenient to him, using the
machinery of government as his tool.
A combination of these characteristics in
the two most important persons holding
the nation's vital offices became
impossible to content with. The situation
was made worse by a number of other
government functionaries and
organisations, chief among which is the
Nigerian Security Organisation (NSO). In
fact, this body will be overhauled and re-
organized.
And so it came to be that the same
government which received the tumultuous
welcome now became alienated from the
people. To prevent a complete erosion of
our given mandate therefore, we had to act
so that hope may be rebuilt.
Let me now address your attention to the
major issues that confront us, so that we
may, as one people, chart a future
direction for our dear country. We do not
pretend to have all the answers to the
questions which our present problems have
put before our nation. We have come with
the strongest determination to create an
atmosphere in which positive efforts shall
be given the necessary support for lasting
solutions.
For matters of the moment which require
immediate resolutions, we intend to pursue
a determined programme of action. Major
issues falling into this category have been
identified and decisions taken on what
should be done.
Firstly, the issue of political detainees or
convicts of special military tribunals. The
history of our nation had never recorded
the degree of indiscipline and corruption as
in the period between October 1979 and
December 1983.
While this government recognises the
bitterness created by the irresponsible
excesses of the politicians, we consider it
unfortunate that methods of such nature as
to cause more bitterness were applied to
deal with past misdeeds. We must never
allow ourselves to lose our sense of
natural justice. The innocent cannot suffer
the crimes of the guilty. The guilty should
be punished only as a lesson for the future.
In line with this government's intention to
uphold fundamental human rights, the
issue of detainees will be looked into with
despatch.
As we do not intend to lead a country
where individuals are under the fear of
expressing themselves, the Public Officers
Protection Against False Accusation Decree
4 of 1984 is hereby repealed. And finally,
those who have been in detention under
this decree are hereby unconditionally
released.
The responsibility of the media to
disseminate information shall be exercised
without undue hindrance. In that process,
those responsible are expected to be
forthright and to have the nation's interest
as their primary consideration.
The issue of decrees has generated a lot of
controversies. It is the intention of this
government to review all other decrees.
The last twenty months have not witnessed
any significant changes in the national
economy. Contrary to expectations, we
have so far been subjected to a steady
deterioration in the general standard of
living; and intolerable suffering by the
ordinary Nigerians have risen higher,
scarcity of commodities has increased,
hospitals still remain mere consulting
clinics, while educational institutions are
on the brink of decay. Unemployment has
stretched to critical dimensions.
Due to the stalemate, which arose in
negotiation with the International Monetary
Fund, the former government embarked on
a series of counter-trade agreements.
Under the counter-trade agreements,
Nigerians were forced to buy goods and
commodities at higher prices than obtained
in the international market. The
government intends to review the whole
issue of counter-trade
A lot has been said and heard about our
position with the International Monetary
Fund. Although we formally applied to the
fund in April 1983, no progress has as yet
been made in the negotiation and a
stalemate has existed for the last two
years.
We shall break the deadlock that frustrated
the negotiations with a view to evaluating
more objectively both the negative and
positive implications of reaching a mutual
agreement with the Fund. At all times in
the course of discussions, our
representatives will be guided by the
feelings and aspirations of the Nigerian
people.
It is the view of this government that
austerity without structural adjustment is
not the solution to our economic
predicament. The present situation whereby
44 per cent of our revenue earning is
utilised to service debts is not realistic. To
protect the danger this poses to the poor
and the needy in our society, steps will be
taken to ensure comprehensive strategy of
economic reforms.
The crux of our economic problems has
been identified to centre around four
fundamental issues:
1. A decrease of our domestic production,
while our population continues to increase.
2. Dependence on import for both
consumer goods and raw materials for our
industries
3. A grossly unequal gap between the rich
and the poor.
4. The large role played by the public
sector in economic activity with hardly any
concrete results to justify such a role.
These are the problems we must confront.
ON FOREIGN POLICY:
Nigeria's foreign policy in the last 20
months has been characterised by
inconsistency and incoherence. It has
lacked the clarity to make us know where
we stood on matters of international
concern to enable other countries relate to
us with seriousness. Our role as Africa's
spokesman has diminished because we
have been unable to maintain the respect
of African countries.
The ousted military government conducted
our external relations by a policy of
retaliatory reactions. Nigeria became a
country that has reacted to given
situations, rather than taking the initiative
as it should and always been done. More
so, vengeful considerations must not be
the basis of our diplomacy. African
problems and their solutions should
constitute the premise of our foreign
policy.
The realisation of the Organisation of
African Unity of the Lagos Plan of Action
for self-sufficiency and constructive co-
operation in Africa shall be our primary
pursuit.
The Economic Community of West African
States must be reborn with the view to
achieving the objective of regional
integration. The problems of drought-
stricken areas of Africa will be given more
attention and sympathy, and our best
efforts will be made to assist in their
rehabilitation within the limits of our
resources. Our membership of the United
Nations Organisation will be made more
practical and meaningful. The call for a
new International Economic Order which
lost its momentum in the face of the debt
crisis will be made once again.
Nigeria hereby makes a renewed request to
the Non-Aligned Movement to regroup and
reinvigorate its determination to restructure
the global economic system, while we
appeal to the industrialized nations to
positively consider the debt plight of the
developing countries and assist in dealing
with the dangers that face us. We shall
remain members of the various multilateral
institutions and inter-governmental
organisations which we belong to and do
what must be done to enhance the
membership and participation within them.
Fellow Nigerians, this country has had
since independence a history mixed with
turbulence and fortune. We have witnessed
our rise to greatness, followed with a
decline to the state of a bewildered nation.
Our human potentials have been neglected,
our natural resources put to waste. A
phenomenon of constant insecurity and
overbearing uncertainty has become
characteristic of our national existence.
My colleagues and I are determined to
change the course of history. This
government is determined to unite this
country. We shall not allow anything to
obstruct us. We recognise that a
government, be it civilian or military, needs
the consent of the people to govern if it is
to reach its objective. We do not intend to
rule by force. At the same time, we should
not be expected to submit to unreasonable
demands. Fundamental rights and civil
liberties will be respected, but their
exercise must not degenerate into
irrational expression nor border on
subversion.
The War Against Indiscipline will continue,
but this time, in the minds and conduct of
Nigerians, and not by way of symbolism or
money-spending campaigns.
This government, on its part, will ensure
that the leadership exhibits proper
example. Criticisms of actions and
decisions taken by us will be given
necessary attention and where necessary
changes made in accordance with what is
expected of us.
Let me reiterate what we said in 1984: This
generation of Nigerians and indeed future
generations have no other country but
Nigeria. We must all stay and salvage it
together. This time it shall be pursued with
deeper commitment and genuine sincerity.
There is a lot of work to be done by every
single Nigerian. Let us all dedicate
ourselves to the cause of building a strong,
united and viable nation for the sake of our
own lives and the benefits of posterity.
Finally, I wish to commend the members of
the Armed Forces and the Nigeria Police
for their mature conduct during the change.
I thank you all for your co-operation and
understanding.
God bless Nigeria.

But he is so on point. Didn't those things happen during Buhari's era 31 years ago.
IBB coup speech is campaigning for Buhari.
1. The man is stubborn. - Yes we want a stubborn president
2. He dies not listen to advice - Yes he will not listen to crooks. Idiagbon had a free hand and people called him the power house
3. He was harsh - Yes we want some one firm.

Which forward looking youth embracing president reads out a 30 year old speech from a crooked murderer of Dele Giwa and other people against his opponent. You have to be particularly clueless.

my father's palmwine stupour shall be better than the GLUE you and your ORANGUTAN lot will be sniffing to forget your miseries by the time GEJ wins.

GMB could as well have made a presentation of OBJ'S latest book - MY WATCH, to spite GEJ but choose not to "throw pearls before swines".

If you have nothing constructive to contribute to my thread but such invectives as you spewed above, then i shall be forced to incinerate you in your own juice.

He read that?Even if Babangida is to contest against Buhari today,Buhari will win the election.
I told people that Jonathan will trip himself. The funny thing is that he read the speech in the context of corruption.

If.you want to criticize Buhari you need a few things:
1. A good and functioning brain that looks at what his weakness is in the public mind.
2. Realize that people already have heard half of what is available on the man
3. Dont quote IBB, quote Wole Soyinka on Buhari
4. Dont bring up thieves like Nwobodo, quote Fela Anikulapo Kuti
5. The masses dont share the fear the elite have for Buhari so try to be aware of their collective anger against corruption in high plces

Your thread is crap and you are elevating a mistake by Dr Clueless Jonathan.
A president is reading a coup speech by the most corrupt head of state Nigeria ever had against the most corruption free head of state we ever had and you are praising him. He just drove another nail into his political coffin. There is no living democrat who should be quoting IBB.
IBB annulled a free and fair election, stole probably up to $20bn in eight years and killed Dele Giwa and probe Ly many more.
The speech itself was read in a halting, incomprehensible manner calling into question GEJ's educational qualifications and was about Buhari being stubborn and harsh on crime and corruption which is what we like and won't take advice from IBB himself which is worthy of Nobel prize.

I see a lot of wailing from apeshiits here. Somebody should bring in a bowl here for them.

Please please...tell me that a democratically elected President didn't just read out a document developed from an act of treason to score a political point? Tell me this is a hoax....please!!

Buhari is yet to convince me that he is a democrat, let alone fit to be president of a modern Nigeria.

I think it is a big shame that we even have to consider a former dictator, one who hasn't bothered to equip himself with the necessary knowledge needed to build a modern democratic society, as candidate for president. Shame that GEJ has reduced us to this level and a double shame that many think that Buhari is the messiah we need.

What an arrant bunkum! You had the got to speak about constructive debate but chose to display incurable primitivism by abusing your president and calling him a drunkard? If you don't want splashes of water on your body, why did you stray to a river side? It seems idiots like you don't take ample time to prove-read your post before sending them out on Nairaland. God saw your parents but chose to make a "drunkard " as you alleged as the president of Nigeria, don't you think he deserves some president even if you don't like his administrative style? From your initial post and this follow-up, it clearly shows you lack home training. Take me on if you can and let the altercation begin .Fool.

Talking about proof-reading, go through your post and see the litany of mis-spellings you garnered.

You amaze me with your ignoramic rants

How dare GEJ (a self profess democrat who has never given a damn about our welfare) use a coupist text of our inglorious past to score cheap gains in the 21st century.

GEJ'S actions today will reverberate in our political space in the days to come and a drunk's paradise will be better than the coffin he has nailed himself into.
